Have you played a game that stayed in your head long after you played it?

For me, Outer Wilds would be that game. I feel like I haven't stopped thinking about it since I beat it a couple years ago.

You should give Human Revolution a go, then. It's pretty old by now and the graphics can be turned down quite far. It should run on most things.

Yeah, the deus ex games are available on xbox so I shouldn't have a hard time playing those. Do they still hold up?

Human Revolution is fantastic, still. Mankind Divided is pretty much just upgraded more of it. The only downside is that Mankind Divided leaves the story unfinished, as it was the second entry in what was intended to become a trilogy. It failed financially due some BS mismanagement by Squenix.

But there's hope! Eidos Montreal was acquired by Embracer Group last year, who have done much better with the management of their studios. There have been whisperings of Adam Jensen's story being resumed at the studio.

Ah, I'll keep them on the backlog then!

About Embracer though.. you didn't see this? Not sure exactly how it'll pan out but it doesn't sound good: https://www.polygon.com/23759179/embracer-tomb-raider-lotr-restructure-studio-closures-lay-offs

Oh darn... Looking at their portfolio though, it's not all golden geese. Hopefully they'll know what is worth the effort to keep.

Yeah I hope they won't have to axe too much!
